Flutter's End

So the series is supposed to be called My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic, but seriously... What friendship? What magic? In the episode "The Mysterious Mare Do Well", Rainbow Dash is ousted by her friends, who apparently believed that to teach her a lesson not to boast and brag, a part of who she is I might add, they decided to dress up as Mare Do Well and be better than her, which was a pretty mean thing to do and Rainbow didn't even deserve it. And in the episode "A Canterlot Wedding, Part 1", Twilight's friends put her at the bottom of the barrel, favoring the false Cadance over her, thus betraying her in the meanest possible way. And now, I strongly believe the same fate that befell Rainbow and Twilight will happen to dear Fluttershy, simply for being the only pony who believes that Discord deserves a second chance to be reformed in the upcoming episode "Keep Calm and Flutter On". But would Fluttershy's friends dare to turn their backs on her as they have graciously shown to do so with each other? I'm sure of it. So how can this series still attract bronies when the "magic of friendship" doesn't even make sense anymore?
